NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

9.1 Application Information

The TPS6200x device family are highly efficient synchronous step down DC/DC converters providing adjustable output voltages from 0.9 V to VIN and fixed output voltages.

9.2 Typical Application

9.2.1 Design Requirements

When the adjustable output voltage version (TPS62000DGS) is used, the output voltage is set by the external resistor divider (see Figure 5).

The output voltage is calculated as:

Equation 1. TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 eq_1_lvs294.gif

with R1 + R2 ≤ 1 MΩ

R1 + R2 should not be greater than 1 MW because of stability reasons.

For stability reasons, a small bypass capacitor (C(ff)) is required in parallel to the upper feedback resistor, refer to Figure 5. The bypass capacitor value can be calculated as:

Equation 2. TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 eq_2_lvs294.gif
Equation 3. TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 eq_3_lvs294.gif

R1 is the upper resistor of the voltage divider. For C(ff), choose a value which comes closest to the computed result.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

9.2.2.1 Inductor Selection

A 10 μH minimum output inductor is used with the TPS6200x. Values larger than 22 μH or smaller than 10 μH may cause stability problems because of the internal compensation of the regulator.

For output voltages greater than 1.8 V, a 22 μH inductance might be used in order to improve the efficiency of the converter.

After choosing the inductor value of typically 10 μH, two additional inductor parameters should be considered: first the current rating of the inductor and second the DC resistance.

The DC resistance of the inductance influences directly the efficiency of the converter. Therefore, an inductor with lowest DC resistance should be selected for highest efficiency.

In order to avoid saturation of the inductor, the inductor should be rated at least for the maximum output current plus the inductor ripple current which is calculated as:

Equation 4. TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 eq_4_lvs294.gif

where

  • ƒ = Switching frequency (750 kHz typical)
  • L = Inductor value
  • ΔIL = Peak-to-peak inductor ripple current
  • IL(max) = Maximum inductor current

The highest inductor current occurs at maximum VIN.

A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of the TPS6200x which is 1.6 A with ILIM = VIN and 900 mA with ILIM = GND. See Table 1 for recommended inductors.

9.2.2.2 Output Capacitor Selection

For best performance, a low ESR output capacitor is needed. At output voltages greater than 1.8 V, ceramic output capacitors can be used to show the best performance. Output voltages below 1.8 V require a larger output capacitor and ESR value to improve the performance and stability of the converter.

Table 2. Capacitor Selection

OUTPUT VOLTAGE RANGE OUTPUT CAPACITOR OUTPUT CAPACITOR ESR
1.8 V ≤ VIN ≤ 5.5 V Co ≥ 10 μF ESR ≤ 120 mΩ
0.8 V ≤ VIN < 1.8 V Co ≥ 47 μF ESR > 50 mΩ

See Table 3 for recommended capacitors.

If an output capacitor is selected with an ESR value ≤ 120 mΩ, its RMS ripple current rating always meets the application requirements. Just for completeness, the RMS ripple current is calculated as:

Equation 5. TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 eq_5_lvs294.gif

The overall output ripple voltage is the sum of the voltage spike caused by the output capacitor ESR plus the voltage ripple caused by charging and discharging the output capacitor:

Equation 6. TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 eq_6_lvs294.gif

Where the highest output voltage ripple occurs at the highest input voltage VI.

9.2.2.3 Input Capacitor Selection

Because of the nature of the buck converter having a pulsating input current, a low ESR input capacitor is required for best input voltage filtering and minimizing the interference with other circuits caused by high input voltage spikes.

The input capacitor should have a minimum value of 10 μF and can be increased without any limit for better input voltage filtering.

The input capacitor should be rated for the maximum input ripple current calculated as:

Equation 7. TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 eq_7_lvs294.gif

The worst case RMS ripple current occurs at D = 0.5 and is calculated as: TPS62000 TPS62001 TPS62002 TPS62003 TPS62004 TPS62005 TPS62006 TPS62007 TPS62008 inline_lvs294.gif

Ceramic capacitor show a good performance because of their low ESR value, and they are less sensitive against voltage transients compared to tantalum capacitors.

Place the input capacitor as close as possible to the input pin of the IC for best performance.
